Event/Training Registration

Description:

Faith Based Community Organizations (FBCOs) can be a safe, inviting place for people to attend, worship, and fulfill meaningful parts of their and the community’s lives. With a FBCO, there can be dangers to both mitigate and respond to, like any other place where people assemble in the community. FBCOs can also be a tremendous resource for communities when properly included in local emergency preparedness plans.

Emergency and Safety Planning Fundamentals

This session presents the basics of creating an Emergency Operations
Plan (EOP) wherein, with training and practice, FBCOs can create safe
places to gather and ensure effective response procedures and resources
during times of emergencies and/or disaster.

Active Threat Preparation and Response

FBCOs are considered “soft targets” in today’s sometimes violent world.
Preparing for and responding to active threats (hate crimes, weapons,
disruptive people) involves teaching, planning, and exercising. This
session will help participants maintain and use situational awareness and
effective response to their fullest, helping to potentially save lives and
reduce injury.
